[NSX] 9 Free NSX eBooks to download

Last year I was fortunate enough to go to VMworld in Barcelona. One of the coolest “goodies” that I brought back was a small NSX book about automating NSX using PowerNSX. What I didn’t know at the time was that there were a total of 4 books given away for free (and even signed by the authors!).

Thanks to longtime vExpert Keiran Shelden over at readysetvirtual.wordpress.com I learned that those books are available as free downloads.

Wait.. it gets even better! This year there are two five new additions to that NSX-knowledge-goodness which will also be distributed (and maybe also signed?) at VMworld. But if you are not able to go to VMworld this year (like me) then you can download them here instead.

Here are the links for all 6 9 free NSX books for you to enjoy and learn from:

VMware NSX Multi-site Solutions and Cross-vCenter NSX Design by Humair Ahmed with contributions from Yannick Meillier

VMware NSX Automation Fundamentals by Caio Oliveira and Thiago Koga

VMware NSX Micro-segmentation Day 1 by Wade Homes

VMware NSX Micro-segmentation Day 2 by Geoff Wilmington

Operationalizing VMware NSX by Kevin Less

Automating NSX for vSphere with PowerNSX by Anthony Burke

Unfortunately I could not find links to all the authors, so if you know their twitter handles please let me know in the comments.

Thanks to these guys I am able to learn more about VMware NSX and hope you can enjoy those free eBooks as well.

Update 1: I just found 3 more NSX books that are free to download!
